Turn on Willessee (2),
Neglect Mary Kostakidis (3)
Time has come for us to choose
Infotainment over news

Turn off SBS (4),
Forget Mary Kostakidis
Like the rest of us I guess
She can no longer so impress

Why continue to keep trying
To separate the real news from the lying
In the end it all comes down to this

Turn off SBS

All of us must face the day
When our ideals have flown away
Just give in to our dismay
Watch Willessee not Mary K.
Time has been in our youth
We sought accuracy and truth
Scoffed at the commercial news
And satirised Hinch (5) and all his views
But oh how does time unnerve us
The Special Broacasting Service
Doesn't seem worth the hassle
Don't change your life, mate change your channel

We all eventually switch
To lying and deception
We choose the tabloid pitch
Like some inner technical hitch

The high ideals that you once had
End up in your colostomy bag
Pick Paradise Beach (6) over John Keats (7)
Choose beauty over truth
SBS becomes RS (8) like Mary after youth
Dead air, loss of all reception
